wow, cant believe it has been 3 weeks since my last entry.. not that i've been waaay too busy with school works ke ape..mind you, been very lazy..haha mentang2 dah last sem ;) nuthing interesting happened since the cat incident.lol
anyway, for my 25th bday, i decided to do sumthin different - travelling alone.. it's something that i wanted to do for a very2 long time.. i envy all those 'minah salleh" who have the guts to travel the world alone, exploring foreign countries all by themselves..so i thought, let's give this a try.. i need sun, beach, sunset.. since it's my first attempt, i decided to go to Pangkor je.. then i had to persuade my Abah.. cant actually go without his permission can i? after one long text sms, and a phone call, he gave me the green light.. yay!! terus googled for a nice resort..wanted to stay at Pangkor Laut, but... the rate is USD 400/nite!! crazy kan? so i settled for second best -Pangkor Island Beach Resort.. fell in lurve with the pics on the net.. :D
when i told my friends, most of them freaked out..they thought something was troubling me.. not forgetting for those few who discouraged me as well..dont be surprised that one of my so-called friend actually said macam loser je travel sorang2..rite when i was already on the ferry to Pangkor.. come on people, we cant always be dependent on others..and at times, we need to be alone.. and that was what i felt when i decided to go..i just wanted to this for myself.. i needed time to hear myself.. my inner thoughts..in other words, a weekend of ME and ME alone..:D
truth be told, i was a lil nervous at first.. i mean, here's this girl who thinks the idea of eating alone in public = pathetic.. ye la, of all the people in the world, cant u at least drag a person to accompany u? tetibe je, decided it's time to do the very thing she wanted to do, alone.. haha but u know what? it wasnt a mistake.. i had a blast.. i found the peace i was looking for.. seriously.. i felt so calm and tenang throughout my stay.. nothing awkward or strange.. for real people :D just look at these and you'll know what i mean ;)
on the way to Pangkor..never thought i'd have the guts to stand on the ferry's deck..haha see, when u travel alone u tend to be all berani and actually try things out :)

wah! gud on ya gurl. i actually like the idea of traveling alone skali skale..nuthing wrong bout it.. sumtimes iye perlu kan DD..
Nway xkn just long walk on the beach n watching sunset je kot??..Pangkor is heaven for water activities like snorkel n scuba or at least kayak ke kan..
Err..biase chick travel alone nie, cliche die terjumpe la satu mamat hensem tepi pantai time jog or tertukar beg time kt lobby ke..
Itz there such thing in ur Pangkor trip?? spill the beans sista!!hahaha!!
haha i didnt go to Pangkor for men che wan.. i wanted peace, and that was exactly what i got.. though i did spot a few cute guys..just not in the mood to socialize or even say hi.haha i stayed a nite je..so tak sempat nak try any of those water activities..sempat swim kejap.. tp besh giler la..should make it 2 nites next time.. tioman is next! :D
people should get a vacation for 1 more often.way to go!->i like the idea
wah!! cuti2 pulau nampak..tetapi if alone sokmo sayu la beb!!
I'd love to travel alone some day, but I don't think I'd go very far or for very long, sbb when the only person I'm stuck with is myself, I'd be bored to tears! lol
Love the pictures - you look like you had a great time Dee!
che wan : maybe on next trip, i'll be on look-out for men.haha :p
nad : i know..at times, we need to be on our own kan?u should give it a try too ;)
lubna : maybe becoz my trip was jez for a nite, i didnt feel bored @ lonely.. in fact, i didnt even haf enuff time to explore the resort..:P
